The editors liked

  • The NX Mini has a super-slick design that isn't overdone and makes you want to carry it around. The large one-inch sensor produces images far and above cellphone capability. Despite being aimed at beginners
  • There are still a hearty amount of controls in
  • Small size
  • Picture quality up to 1600 ISO
  • Touchscreen tilts 180° vertically
  • NFC and WiFi
  • Great battery life (over 500 shots)
  • Secondary flash included
  • Lightroom 5 license included
  • Compatible with NX lenses for APSC sensors
  • Touchscreen
  • Tilting screen
  • Stills and video quality
  • Build quality
  • It's cute
  • Small lens system
  • Responsive touchscreen
  • Keenly priced
  • Tiny build
  • Flip up 3in touch screen
  • NFC and Wi-Fi
  • Samsung has made a truly compact camera in the NX Mini
  • And inside its portable chassis is a wealth of specs you wouldn't expect in such a small shell. There's a oneinch
  • 20.5Megapixel sensor packed in
  • And there's a new lens mount that Samsung has made j
  • Amazingly small ILC
  • Tilting 180-degree LCD
  • Decent stills and movies with enough light
  • Lens adapter for using traditional lenses

The editors didn't like

  • The interchangeable lenses are pointless and undercut the compactness of the camera. There are only two lenses to choose from
  • And neither offers compelling specs. There are no sharing features which distinguish the camera as being particularly "smarter"
  • Thin frame makes weight disproportionately balanced
  • Provides awkward handling
  • Lowquality plastic
  • Slow startup
  • No lens cap
  • Mono microphone
  • AF struggles in video mode
  • MicroSD cards
  • NXM lenses incompatible with APSC mirrorless interchangeablelens cam
  • Limited lens range
  • Smudgy images
  • No flash
  • We'd happily swap the selfie feature for a more versatile screen hinge
  • We miss the iFN lens features
  • New lens system is risky
  • No handgrip
  • No viewfinder
  • Small sensor
  • While we like Samsung's NX Mini for its portability
  • The interchangeable lens system means it's a little less portable if you want to take advantage of its versatility. That means shelling out for more lenses
  • And then having to carry them around
  • Not to
  • LCD wipes out in direct sunshine
  • Noisy at higher ISOs
  • Controls may be too small for big fingers
  • Mono mic

  • Abstract:  While there are many great cheap cameras and vlogging reviews for YouTube, if you really want to save money we suggest the Logitech C922x Pro webcam, which you can get for under $100 for all your streaming needs. It's an excellent cam for beginners as it...

  • Abstract:  The Samsung NX Mini Smart Camera is a deluxe digital camera with an interchangeable lens. This camera is ultralight, with an extra-wide lens and a solid metal finish for durability. The Samsung NX Mini Smart Camera is considered one of the thinnest interc...

  • The Samsung NX Mini is an excellent everyday shooter. Great for informal gatherings and good times. For more professional occasions I say upgrade to the Samsung NX30. I honestly just love that I can throw the NX Mini in my bag and it's ready to use right...

  • High image and video quality, Battery life is excellent, Touch screen is handy for changing settings, Can use NX lenses with adapter, Burst modes perform very well, Attractive incamera filters, External flash shoe, Shoots in RAW mode, Wink and smile shutt
  • Kit lenses offer narrow zoom range, Minimal lens offerings (two official options at the time of this review), Auto focus can be slow and inaccurate, Manual focus is awkward, No thumb dial to ease navigation, Builtin flash is weak, External flash shoe is p
  • This small Wi-Fi camera has a flip-up "selfie" LCD, but offers few native lenses. Auto focus is a little lazy, and low-light performance is so-so - but burst modes go gangbusters. If you only take simple shots, you will enjoy the otherwise high image and ...

  • Abstract:  Who wants a fashion-friendly selfie camera? Well then you will love the Samsung NX Mini. It is the perfect compromise in between a standard point and shoot camera, and a fancier DSLR. It IS a DSLR in fact, but more compact, looking like a point and shoot....

  • Compact, familiar body and control layout, Responsive touchscreen with some quick and useful controls, One-touch video recording, Useful controls while taking video, USB charging
  • Slow image processor and Micro-SD storage make drive mode extremely sluggish, Some touchscreen controls counter-intuitive or semi-functional, Lack of grippable areas means one-handed handling is awkward, Low-resolution LCD, Manual focus is a massive chore
  • The Samsung NX mini is an impressive camera purely because of the amount of technology that Samsung has managed to place inside such a tiny body. The system may be small (no pun intended) for now but the lenses currently available for the mini are of a hi...

  • With Samsung’s history of not so successful with camera, we were skeptical about the unit at first especially after learning that not many of them have failed in building something like this in a compact package. After using it for a month, we can easily...

  • If you're looking for an extremely portable camera with interchangeable lenses and excellent smartphone integration, the NX Mini should be on your list. It remains smaller than Panasonic's GM1, if only by a little bit. It's so small that we protected it w...
